Chapter 1775 Weird Residents
He was carrying a pair of buckets, apparently planning to go to the lake to fetch water. His movements were slow at first, but when he looked up inadvertently, he saw the Tiangong team on the opposite bank.
His eyes suddenly widened, and then his feet slipped and he fell flat on his face on the rocky beach.
The pebbles on this rocky beach are of different sizes and are very sharp. Some are even bigger than coconuts. If someone accidentally bumps into one, he or she might get a big hole on the back of his or her head.
But the farmer seemed to feel no pain at all, he got up and ran into the woods.
I was so panic-stricken, as if the people standing on the other side of the lake were all evil spirits.
How could Bai Ziqi ignore this unusual phenomenon? He waved his hand and three people ran over to capture the farmer.
Something strange happened:
Three strong men couldn't catch a skinny farmer!
The farmer looked like he had no cultivation and no martial arts skills, he was just an ordinary man. The Luodian man from the Heavenly Palace team reached out and grabbed his arm. It should have been as easy as holding a chicken, but he waved his hand and made the strong man stagger!
"Huh?" Bai Ziqi frowned. This farmer had neither skills nor supernatural powers. He was just very strong.
The eyes of the crowd, including the Cloud Envoy and the gods in the Heavenly Palace, were all watching! The man was so angry that he didn't hold back and opened his arms to strangle the farmer until he had no power to resist.
At first the farmer was strangled to the point of rolling his eyes, and instinctively tried to pry the strong man's wrist.
Other people's wrists are twice as thick as his, but no one thought that he could really bend them!
The sturdy man growled repeatedly to encourage himself, and used all his strength, but he was still being pushed further apart by the other party.
The two practitioners nearby couldn't bear to watch, so they threw out a pair of demon-binding ropes and tied up the farmer.
It is ridiculous to use magical weapons to deal with a country bumpkin.
As a result, the farmer got so angry that the rope that tied the monster was almost broken.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the other person quickly added another one, and then he subdued him and dragged him in front of Bai Ziqi.
During this process, the farmer kept shouting and yelling.
He spoke very quickly, but the problem was that no one present could understand him!
Because they couldn't speak the same language, everyone just heard him speak in gibberish.
When he was dragged in front of Bai Ziqi, he immediately shut his mouth, his face turned pale, and his identity kept shrinking back.
This is a sign of extreme fear.
Bai Ziqi knew that his appearance was not good-looking, but it was not to the point of being scary. So, what did this person see?
"Look at the reflection in his eyes!" The grey parrot flapped its wings, flew behind the farmer and hit him on the back of the head.
The man stumbled forward, and the scene in front of his eyes was magnified into a shadow, floating in front of Bai Ziqi——
A yaksha with dark blue skin, covered with scales, a flat nose, a protruding mouth, buck teeth, and vertical pupils.
Looks ferocious.
Anyone who gets close to such a ferocious monster will be scared.
Bai Ziqi stared at it, and it also stared at Bai Ziqi.
Bai Ziqi tilted his head, and it followed suit.
So in the eyes of this farmer, Bai Ziqi looks like this?
He pointed at Bai Shi beside him and said, "Look at him."
The farmer didn't understand, so the guard next to him twisted his face and spoke to Bai Shi.
Looking at the shadow in his eyes, Bai Shi appeared to be another Yaksha, with gray hair, a bowed nose, dark red and sticky skin, and a smaller size.
The same thing happens when the farmer looks at other people. The people he sees will automatically transform into the appearance of a Yaksha.
But Bai Ziqi also discovered that these Yakshas looked a little blurry, and their scales were not delicate, like puppets with crude workmanship, but their hideous and terrifying aura made up for it.
"When people see things, it's nothing but light that's playing tricks on them." The grey parrot said, "Qianhuan or Huanzong has given you a false image, so this farmer thinks you are monsters."
But Bai Ziqi was unable to clarify because the two sides did not speak the same language.
"Why is it a Yaksha?" Since it is an illusion, why not let the farmer see it? Why does it have to be a Yaksha?
In the fantasy world, it was also the Yaksha who came out of the Upside-Down Lake to kill and eat people and fought against the Heavenly Palace team.
As a result, they crossed the lake and came to the real world, and in the eyes of the locals, they turned into yakshas.
This kind of reversal is terrifying when you think about it carefully.
Bai Ziqi lowered his head and saw that the ring on his hand did not glow. This also meant that it did not detect any magical power or disguise.
If it wasn't a spell, why did the farmer regard them as yakshas?
While he was thinking, the farmer suddenly got angry, broke the rope, turned around and ran towards the woods.
high speed.
Bai Ziqi said casually: "Kill him."
Bai Shi grabbed his spear and stabbed the farmer in the back.
His eyesight was extremely accurate. The tip of the spear flew out, moving forward and backward, and pierced the farmer's heart with a whoosh.
The man let out a scream and fell to the ground and died on the spot.
Bai Shiqi picked up the Immortal Binding Rope on the ground and saw that the broken part was indeed torn apart by force. He could not help but be surprised: "How can a farmer have so much strength?"
Bai Ziqi's expression became even more gloomy: "You should say, how can an ordinary person with a pierced heart scream so loudly?"
The farmer's scream before his death resounded through the sky, startling the crows in the forest. Even those with insufficient strength could not imitate it, let alone this person who was near death?
Just the sight of this mountain farmer made everyone feel that something was not right.
At this moment, Bai Shi held the Silver Pearl Fruit and said, "Master, the light of the fruit has disappeared."
Since they came ashore, the light of the silver bead fruit has become weaker and weaker. Now it has been a quarter of an hour, and the light has gradually disappeared. Even the silver bead fruit on the branches has reached its time limit because the sky is bright.
The silver bead fruit that no longer glows looks like a big pear.
This means that we can't go back to the fantasy world. Bai Ziqi hummed and said, "Let's go to the town ahead and take a look. These places are not right."
The grey parrot asked him, "What do you mean?"
"The mortals in both the reality and the fantasy world of this inverted sea add up to more than 200,000 to 300,000 people. Have the immortal caves that the God has captured in the past ever taken in so many mortals?"
"Never before." The grey parrot said without thinking, "So-called immortals are mostly solitary people; those who can become successful have only a few hundred mortals serving them at most. This time when I entered the Upside-Down Sea Fantasy Realm, I was a little surprised to see tens of thousands of people alive on the island."
"Is it the spiritual energy that limits the number of people in the cave?"
"Of course." There are many other reasons, but Bai Ziqi hit the nail on the head, so Miao Zhantian followed his words and said, "The spiritual energy in the cave is precious, and it's not enough for the immortals to use themselves, so why would they be willing to share it with mortals?"
Bai Ziqi pointed to the sand table and said, "Even if the Upside-Down Sea can absorb the spiritual energy of the Flashing Gold Plain for its own use, isn't it too much for Master Qianhuan to support hundreds of thousands of mortals in his own cave? Even if he wants to serve the entire Huan Sect, thirty to fifty thousand people are enough."
"Qian Huan is not that kind. These hundreds of thousands of people must have other uses."
Bai Ziqi hesitated to speak. As the saying goes, you raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them in one moment, but why raise so many mortals at the same time and for so many years?
The grey parrot saw through it and said, "If you have something to say, just say it."
Bai Ziqi still hesitated for a moment before he whispered, "According to the Divine Master, is this really the present world?"
Of course, he believed in Miao Zhantian's divine power. However, didn't Miao Zhantian also know that He Xiao was related to the Dafanghu?
Although the Eye of Truth is powerful, it is not completely impossible to deceive.
What's more, what they have to deal with this time is an ancient mirage immortal whose temperament, methods and abilities are difficult to understand!
The grey parrot made no sound, as if lost in thought, and suddenly flapped its wings and flew towards the farmer's corpse on the ground.
When it stood on the branch and looked down, a small one-eyed shadow appeared above its head. Its eyeballs rolled twice and suddenly turned red!
It emitted another red light, covering the farmer's body.
Everyone stared at it without blinking.
At first, there was nothing unusual about the corpse, but the Eye of Truth blinked twice, and the red light became thicker, as bright red as blood.
Anyone can tell at a glance that Miao Zhantian has increased his investment in the Eye of Truth and improved his divine power.
Under the red light, the farmer's body became increasingly transparent from the outside to the inside.
Not only the skin and clothes, but also the muscles, internal organs, nerves and bones in the body are exposed.
With the blessing of the Eye of Truth, everyone briefly possessed the power of perspective.
"No!" the grey parrot suddenly said, "This is not the soul fire of a living person!"
Under the red light, everyone in the Heavenly Palace could see that there was indeed a small flame flickering in the farmer's head, but it was getting dimmer and dimmer.
"In my true eyes, the soul fire of a living person is pale yellow. The stronger the soul power, the darker the color."
After that, the Eye of Truth changed direction and shone directly at Bai Shi. The latter subconsciously raised his hand to block it, but once he was enveloped by the red light, others could see the deep yellow flame active in his brain.
By comparing them like this, everyone can see the problem:
The flame in the farmer's mind was dark blue!
Bai Ziqi understood: "Since birth, the body and soul of a person are matched. Only when the soul fire is nourished by the life stove can one have self-awareness. This is called the living soul."
He looked at the farmer's dark green soul fire again: "Is this... a dead soul?"
"That's right!" Miao Zhantian's tone was filled with anger, "This is not a living person at all!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the corpse on the ground melted in the red light.
It was just like a wax figure melting in fire or ice and snow melting. The farmer's body collapsed and turned into a pool of clear water on the ground in full view of everyone.
After its true nature was seen through by the Eye of Truth, it could no longer sustain itself and finally revealed its true form.
"Water shell!" Bai Shiqi said in shock, "He, he and Yasha have the same body!"
Yaksha was created by Qian Huan, and so was this farmer.
"His soul fire is dark green. Even if you don't kill him, he can't live in the world for long." But Miao Zhantian couldn't say for sure how long it would take for these dead souls' soul fires to fade and completely dissipate. After all, this is the Upside-Down Sea, and no one knows what Qian Huan has done to these dead souls.
Bai Ziqi frowned: "But judging from this man's behavior, he doesn't seem to know that he is a dead soul."
The farmer saw the reaction of the Heavenly Palace team and it was the reaction of a living person fearing a Yaksha.
Just then, the team that went out to look for Huan Zong's whereabouts came back and quickly reported.
It turned out that they did not find the Huanzong team, but discovered another group of strange traces in the woods by the lake.
